Looks fantastic. Its been in the car since early 08. Been to the dragstrip a few times, daily driven for months on end. Its not even dirty. You can still see the black lettering stamped on the clutch disc.
They hold power as well as they hold up.

It helps if you do your part, but you have got to give the Kevlar credit. Despite hundreds of hours of stop and go traffic mixed with street launches and full power shifts it shows no discernible wear. I dont think it'll ever need another clutch.
Awesome! Brad needs that clutch in m30 form. I have found the excessive wear out of clutches is generally poor driver ability. So looks to me like you can operate a clutch.
i know that clutch masters makes a stage 3+ clutch which is a segmented kevlar disc. And comes with the pp. its not cheap though. But thats what im going with.

Thats good to see. I just got my Kevlar setup lastnight. Picked it up from UUC for a good price.
Looks good. Treat it right and it'll do great.
I also replaced the flywheel when I installed mine. You want to to absolutely sure the face of the flywheel is flat. Check it with a straightedge before installing that fancy clutch.

Hows it perform? I'm interested to know how mine's going to hold up to the forced induction. What's your setup running at, boost wise also? Sorry for the hijak, Dan.

My clutch has held up amazingly well, but I don't abuse my clutch. It has held up to two years worth of driving at 8psi (~300whp) and half a year at 12psi (un-dyno'd) and still doesn't slip. I'm not pushing my luck and taking it any higher though on this clutch.
